Book series named “best” for second consecutive year,  maintains Amazon.com’s highest ratings   
 
“One of the most addictive reads you’ll ever pick up.”
 
“I’m grateful and flattered,” author Jake Biondi said about his BOYSTOWN book series being included in the BookLikes.com “Best of 2017” book list.  This is the second consecutive year the series has been named BookLikes.com’s “best.” 
 
With an average customer rating of five stars, the BOYSTOWN series also continues to receive the highest possible rating on Amazon.com as well.
 
“I must say that this series just gets better and better,” wrote Marco Manganiello, founder of BookLikes.com.  “I have been glued to my Kindle all week.  Jake Biondi can’t write the next book fast enough.”
 
The BOYSTOWN series currently contains seven books with the eighth book in the series scheduled to be released on February 14, 2018.  “The eighth book is a very special one, so a Valentine’s Day release date seemed appropriate,” Biondi told fans of his BOYSTOWN book series.  “Because of the success of the series, fans from all over the world have been asking me when book eight will be available.  The ending to BOYSTOWN Season Seven foreshadowed the deaths of two main characters, including a member of the Mancini family, and readers tell me they are longing to know who died.”
 
“Being included in Marco Manganiello’s list of the best books of 2017 is tremendous honor and a great way to end a year that has been very good for BOYSTOWN,” Biondi added.
 
“Jake Biondi is one of the most masterful writers of fiction of our time,” said Roger Ward in his review of the BOYSTOWN series.  “The saga is told masterfully through several subplots which include unforeseen twists and turns that will leave the reader stunned and speechless.”
 
BOYSTOWN recently introduced the series’ first transgender character.  Musician and YouTube sensation Skylar Kergil, who appears in BOYSTOWN Season Six, said, “Jake Biondi's inclusion of a trans masculine character, Ethan, puts this book on a ground-breaking level.  The inclusion of alternative gender identities and diverse bodies allows us, the readers, to also explore our own thoughts about these sweeping, universal issues we all experience: love, identity, and passion.”
 
“I regularly receive notes from fans who connect with the characters and want to know what the future holds for them.  The broad appeal of the BOYSTOWN series is incredible.  BOYSTOWN has a really diverse audience and an equally diverse cast of characters,” Biondi said.
 
“Jake Biondi has a way of writing a story that sucks you in from the first word on the page to the last word on the last one.  I would put his writing abilities against any screenwriter of any soap opera that’s on TV today and still call him the best.  His characters are extremely engaging, his storylines are superb, and the cliffhangers will leave you breathless and waiting in eager anticipation to see what happens next.  This series is not just a good read, it’s an amazing read and one that I would highly recommend,” wrote Love Bytes Reviews.
 
Engraved: All Things Writing wrote, “Make no mistake: Jake Biondi’s BOYSTOWN series is one of the most addictive reads you’ll ever pick up.”
 
“BOYSTOWN is a must-read series filled with twists and turns that everyone will love,” said BOYSTOWN model Cory Zwierzynski, who will be featured on the cover of BOYSTOWN Season Eight.  “I was so grateful when Jake Biondi asked me to join the BOYSTOWN team.  I have watched the BOYSTOWN audience grow with the release of each installment of the series.”  About Biondi, Zwierzynski said, “Working with Jake has been awesome.  Over the past few years, we have gotten to know each other well and have become good friends.  He knows how to tell a great story and keep the audience engaged from the very first page of each book.  I am grateful to be one of the faces of BOYSTOWN.”
 
The BOYSTOWN series has a fascinating history.  It began as an online story released in installments, each ending with a cliffhanger that left readers wondering what would happen to their favorite characters.  Enthusiastic BOYSTOWN fans from all over the world petitioned Biondi to release the installments more quickly; they simply couldn’t wait to find out what happened next.   Overwhelmed by and grateful for the fans’ responses to the series, Biondi began to write more quickly and also began to publish the series in book format.
 
The BOYSTOWN series is available at bookstores across the country as well at online at Amazon.com, bn.com, Google Play, and iTunes.  The series is available in paperback, audio book, and all e-book formats.  Readers may order autographed paperback copies of the books directly from BoystownTheSeries.com.

Author of popular BOYSTOWN series talks ‘Season Eight’ and upcoming BOYSTOWN TV series
 
BOYSTOWN series author Jake Biondi has revealed the cover and release date for the highly-anticipated eighth book of his BOYSTOWN series.  BOYSTOWN Season Eight will be released on February 14, 2018.  Biondi has once again teamed up with designer Anna Crosswell of Cover Couture to create the latest BOYSTOWN book cover.  “It’s great to be a part of BOYSTOWN as the designer for such a diverse and exciting series,” Crosswell said.

“The eighth book is a very special one so a Valentine’s Day release date seemed appropriate,” Biondi told fans of his BOYSTOWN book series.  “Because of the success of the series, fans from all over the world have been asking me when book eight will be available.  The ending to BOYSTOWN Season Seven foreshadowed the deaths of two main characters, including a member of the Mancini family, and readers tell me they are longing to know who died.”

Biondi added, “I love that fans are connecting with the characters and want to know what the future holds for them.  The broad appeal of the book series is amazing.  BOYSTOWN has an incredibly diverse audience.”

Biondi promised that readers won’t be disappointed by his latest installment.  “Season Eight picks up right where book seven left off and slowly resolves the cliffhangers that ended the seventh installment, including the deaths of two major characters.  But don’t expect to find out those two identities right away.  In true BOYSTOWN fashion, there are many twists and turns at the start of Season Eight before readers discover exactly who died.” 
 
In addition to writing the eighth book in the series, Biondi has been hard at work writing and revising the scripts for the upcoming BOYSTOWN TV series.  “The past five months have been wonderfully hectic,” Biondi said.  “I have been collaborating with two amazing TV producers who love BOYSTOWN as much as I do.  Together, we have developed a unique way of bringing the series to life, including an amazing cast that fans of the series will love.”
 
Biondi added, “While I cannot reveal much more about the TV series at this moment, I can say that 2018 is going to be an incredible year for fans who have been waiting for the series to come to television.  The pilot episode has been shot and fans are going to love it.  Stay tuned…great things are coming.”
 
The BOYSTOWN book series continues to maintain an average customer rating of five stars, the highest possible rating on Amazon.com.  “I am so proud of BOYSTOWN’s five-star rating on Amazon,” Biondi said.  “It’s a tribute not only to the series itself, but to the incredible fans that BOYSTOWN has all over the world.”
 
“Jake Biondi is one of the most masterful writers of fiction of our time,” said Roger Ward in his review of the BOYSTOWN series.  “The saga is told masterfully through several subplots which include unforeseen twists and turns that will leave the reader stunned and speechless.”
 
BOYSTOWN Season Eight is currently available for pre-order on iTunes, Kindle, and Nook.  The series is available in paperback, audio book, and all e-book formats.  Readers may order autographed paperback copies of the books directly from BoystownTheSeries.com.

“A very entertaining and high-energy read by a masterful storyteller.” 
 
“It’s finally here and I’m so excited,” author Jake Biondi said of his seventh BOYSTOWN book, which he released on July 7, 2017.  “The fans’ wait is over and they can now discover what happened to their favorite characters whose lives were hanging in the balance at the end of the sixth book.”
 
The seventh book features a cover created by BOYSTOWN designer Anna Crosswell, who is responsible for the recent redesign of all BOYSTOWN book covers.  Featuring the image of a casket, the cover of BOYSTOWN Season Seven teases what readers will find inside its pages.
 
Biondi recently announced a re-launch of his entire book series with an exciting new look.  Throughout June, Biondi released the new designs.
 
“It’s going to ‘wow’ readers from coast to coast,” Biondi said of the series’ new design.  “I wanted the BOYSTOWN book covers and all the marketing materials to better represent the drama, excitement, and diversity of the BOYSTOWN series.  The new covers hint at the story line twists and turns that readers will find within the books’ pages.”
 
Biondi teamed up with designer Anna Crosswell of Cover Couture to create BOYSTOWN’s new style.  “It’s great to be a part of BOYSTOWN nation and come on board as the designer for such a diverse and exciting series,” Crosswell said.
 
“The seventh book is certainly unique,” Biondi told fans of his BOYSTOWN book series.  “The ending to Season Six left the lives of so many characters in peril that readers are longing to know what happens next.  Their questions are about to be answered.”

Biondi added, “I am so grateful for BOYSTOWN readers and their positive response to the series.  I love that fans are connecting with the characters and want to know what the future holds for them.  The broad appeal of the book series is amazing.  BOYSTOWN has an incredibly diverse audience.”

Biondi promised that readers won’t be disappointed by his latest installment.  “Season Seven picks up right where book six left off and slowly resolves the cliffhangers that ended the sixth installment. Season Seven will allow the readers to get to know some of the series’ minor characters better as well as follow the lives of the books’ core characters.”  Biondi also previewed that BOYSTOWN Season Seven continues the storylines from the first six books while introducing new ones -- and one mysterious new character, too.
 
Initial reviews of BOYSTOWN Season Seven are very positive.  “Page after page, the reader is confronted with corruption, treachery, and the pure evil that some people are capable of as they seek to control or destroy others.  Although Biondi appears to have tempered the bitter Ciancio-Mancini dynastical feud primarily through the marriage of two leading family members, it is soon apparent that the festering hatred that the two families have for each other continues to brew under the surface as characters are revealed to have ties to these families that were not previously known. A very entertaining and high energy read by a masterful storyteller,” wrote Roger Ward in his review of the newest BOYSTOWN book. “The saga is told masterfully through several subplots which include unforeseen twists and turns that will leave the reader stunned and speechless.”
 
BOYSTOWN Season Seven is available in paperback and all e-book formats.  Fans may purchase an autographed copy of BOYSTOWN Season Seven at BoystownTheSeries.com 
 
The BOYSTOWN book series was included in the BookLikes.com “Best of 2016” book list.  With an average customer rating of five stars, the BOYSTOWN series continues to receive the highest possible rating on Amazon.com as well.
 
Biondi is currently working with television producers who are interested in bringing the BOYSTOWN series to TV in the near future.

“It’s going to ‘wow’ readers from coast to coast,” Biondi said of the series’ new design.  “I wanted the BOYSTOWN book covers and all the marketing materials to better represent the drama, excitement, and diversity of the BOYSTOWN series.  The new covers hint at the story line twists and turns that readers will find within the books’ pages.”
 
The first four redesigned covers give fans a taste of what the entire series re-launch will look like.  The bold colors and sexy models on the new covers tease what readers will experience when they turn the pages of the books.

Book series maintains Amazon.com’s highest ratings
 
BOYSTOWN TV series in the works
 
“I’m honored and grateful,” author Jake Biondi said about his BOYSTOWN book series being included in the BookLikes.com “Best of 2016” book list.  With an average customer rating of five stars, the BOYSTOWN series continues to receive the highest possible rating on Amazon.com as well.
 
“I must say that this series just gets better and better,” wrote Marco Manganiello, founder of BookLikes.com.  “I have been glued to my Kindle all week.  Jake Biondi can’t write the next book fast enough.”
 
The BOYSTOWN series currently contains six books, the most recent of which was released on December 12, 2016.  “It’s finally here and I couldn’t be more excited,” Biondi said of BOYSTOWN Season Six.  “The fans’ wait is over and they can now discover what happened to their favorite BOYSTOWN characters whose lives were hanging in the balance at the end of the fifth book.”
 
“Being included in Marco Manganiello’s list of the best books of 2016 is a phenomenal honor and a great way to end a year that has been very good for BOYSTOWN.”  Not only did 2016 see the release of two new books in the BOYSTOWN series, but it also continued the series’ trend of five-star reviews on Amazon.com.
 
“Jake Biondi is one of the most masterful writers of fiction of our time,” said Roger Ward in his review of the BOYSTOWN series.  “The saga is told masterfully through several subplots which include unforeseen twists and turns that will leave the reader stunned and speechless.”
 
The BOYSTOWN book covers feature a group of models known as the “BOYSTOWN boys.” Created by designer/photographer James Franklin, each book cover showcases several of the famous models.  Sean Zevran appears on the cover of BOYSTOWN Season Six.  “The BOYSTOWN series adds life to a genre of literature that has been waning over the last few years,” said Zevran.  “I see the potential for much more to come and I'm honored to be one of the faces of the series. Jake Biondi, myself, and the rest of the BOYSTOWN team have developed a phenomenal partnership and are planning to go very far with it!”
 
The introduction of the BOYSTOWN series’ first transgender character also occurred in 2016.  Musician and YouTube sensation Skylar Kergil, who appears in the sixth book, said, “Jake Biondi's inclusion of a trans masculine character, Ethan, puts this book on a ground-breaking level.  The inclusion of alternative gender identities and diverse bodies allows us, the readers, to also explore our own thoughts about these sweeping, universal issues we all experience: love, identity, and passion.”

Engraved: All Things Writing wrote, “Make no mistake: Jake Biondi’s BOYSTOWN series is one of the most addictive reads you’ll ever pick up.”
 
BOYSTOWN Season Six is already living up to the five-star reputation of its five predecessors in the book series.  Reviewer Roger Ward stated, “This latest book definitely takes the BOYSTOWN series to another level.”  He added, “Romances and relationships, some highly scandalous, are developed, rekindled, or reevaluated. Secrets are unearthed, past bad deeds are revealed, and the bitter Mancini-Ciancio feud continues with all its fury, notwithstanding the efforts of some family members to put it to rest.” 
 
Editor and reviewer Dustin Shrader wrote, “Jake Biondi once again delivers an unquenchable thirst for more with the latest installment of the BOYSTOWN series.  Season Six opens with the aftermath of a catastrophic explosion, leading its characters and the reader on an emotional quest for answers, continuously throwing curveball after curveball with every page turn, all leading to what might possibly be his most thrilling climactic cliffhanger yet.”

“BOYSTOWN is a must-read series filled with twists and turns that everyone will love,” said BOYSTOWN model Cory Zwierzynski, who is featured on several of the BOYSTOWN book covers.  “I was so grateful when Jake Biondi asked me to join the BOYSTOWN team.  As one of the original team members, I have watched the BOYSTOWN audience grow with the release of each installment of the series.”  About Biondi, Zwierzynski said, “Working with Jake has been awesome.  Over the past three years, we have gotten to know each other well and have become good friends.  He knows how to tell a great story and keep the audience engaged from the very first page of each book.  I am grateful to be one of the faces of BOYSTOWN.”

Biondi is working with television producers Weston Mueller and Gabe Fiscale who are bringing his BOYSTOWN series to television.  “Weston and Gabe have been great to work with.  They spent much of 2016 laying the groundwork for bringing BOYSTOWN to television and I feel like 2017 is going to be a very good year for the series, both in print and on TV,” Biondi said. 
 
Zwierzynski said, “BOYSTOWN will make a fantastic TV series because it presents a diverse group of characters that appeal to a wide reading and viewing audience.”  Divine Magazine wrote, “Biondi’s BOYSTOWN was birthed ready for prime time television.” 
 

Latest installment of popular BOYSTOWN series features its first transgender character
 
“It’s finally here and I couldn’t be more excited,” author Jake Biondi said of his sixth BOYSTOWN book, which he released on December 12, 2016.  “The fans’ wait is over and they can now discover what happened to their favorite BOYSTOWN characters whose lives were hanging in the balance at the end of the fifth book.”
 
The sixth book features a hot cover created by BOYSTOWN designer/photographer James Franklin and spotlights model Sean Zevran as well as six other “BOYSTOWN boys.”  “Working with James Franklin is a dream come true,” Biondi explained.  “He is not only a phenomenal photographer, but he has an incredible vision for taking the BOYSTOWN brand to the next level.  James believes in the BOYSTOWN series and is working to bring it to an even wider, more diverse audience.” 
 
“The BOYSTOWN series adds life to a genre of literature that has been waning over the last few years,” said Sean Zevran.  “I see the potential for much more to come and I'm honored to be one of the faces of the series. Jake Biondi, myself, and the rest of the BOYSTOWN team have developed a phenomenal partnership and are planning to go very far with it!”
 
When asked about the sixth BOYSTOWN book, Biondi said, “I think the word I’d use to describe the new book is ‘compelling.’  It’s one of the longest books in the series, so there’s so much for readers to enjoy – and the twist and turns just keep on coming.  Fans will be surprised by the deaths of a few major characters as well as the introduction of two new ones, including the series’ first transgender character.”
 
Musician and YouTube sensation Skylar Kergil, who appears in the sixth book, said, “Jake Biondi's inclusion of a trans masculine character, Ethan, puts this next book on a ground-breaking level.  The inclusion of alternative gender identities and diverse bodies allows us, the readers, to also explore our own thoughts about these sweeping, universal issues we all experience: love, identity, and passion.”
 
Biondi added, “I regularly receive notes from fans who connect with the characters and want to know what the future holds for them.  The broad appeal of the book series is incredible.  BOYSTOWN has a really diverse audience and an equally diverse cast of characters.”
 
BOYSTOWN Season Six is already receiving rave reviews.  Reviewer Roger Ward stated, “As was the case in the prior books, the saga is told masterfully through several subplots which include unforeseen twists and turns that will leave the reader stunned and speechless. No subject is taboo.  This latest book definitely takes the BOYSTOWN series to another level.”  He added, “Romances and relationships, some highly scandalous, are developed, rekindled, or reevaluated. Secrets are unearthed, past bad deeds are revealed, and the bitter Mancini-Ciancio feud continues with all its fury, notwithstanding the efforts of some family members to put it to rest.” 
 
Editor and reviewer Dustin Shrader wrote, “Jake Biondi once again delivers an unquenchable thirst for more with the latest installment of the BOYSTOWN series.  Season Six opens with the aftermath of a catastrophic explosion, leading its characters and the reader on an emotional quest for answers, continuously throwing curveball after curveball with every page turn all leading to what might possibly be his most thrilling climactic cliffhanger yet.”

Biondi promised that readers won’t be disappointed.  “Season Six picks up right where book five left off and reveals the deaths of at least two major characters.  Unlike in previous books, not all the cliffhangers are resolved right away.  In fact, one of the cliffhangers from book five isn’t resolved until the last moments in book six.” 
 
“BOYSTOWN is a must-read series filled with twists and turns that everyone will love,” said BOYSTOWN model Cory Zwierzynski, who is featured on the new book cover.  “I was so grateful when Jake Biondi asked me to join the BOYSTOWN team.  As one of the original team members, I have watched the BOYSTOWN audience grow with the release of each installment of the series.”  About Biondi, Zwierzynski said, “Working with Jake has been awesome.  Over the past three years, we have gotten to know each other well and have become good friends.  He knows how to tell a great story and keep the audience engaged from the very first page of each book.  I am grateful to be one of the faces of BOYSTOWN.”
 
As in his other books, Biondi “pays it forward” by featuring some of his favorite performers in BOYSTOWN Season Six.  Biondi is “thrilled” to again present sensational singer Chadwick Stadt in the BOYSTOWN series.  “Chadwick is a dear friend and a phenomenal performer, so it’s an honor for me to be able to showcase his talent again in Season Six,” Biondi said.  Stadt added, “It's so exciting to be included in such a great book series that will have you turning page after page!”
 
Season Six also welcomes back the “Whiskey & Cherries” trio, singer Amy Armstrong, and pop sensation Steve Grand. “Meredith, Danielle, and I are thrilled to again be written into the BOYSTOWN series.  Jake has done it again. Every time I sit down to read the newest season of BOYSTOWN, I think, ‘There is no way this season can possibly be better than the last.’  But I'm always proven wrong. Each season the character development, betrayal and secrets among those characters, and the unexpected plot-line twists continue to get better and better,” said Brian Felder of “Whiskey and Cherries.”  Season Six also features musicians Sklyar Kergil and Jonathan Ackley.
 
The BOYSTOWN series has a fascinating history.  It began as an online story released in installments, each ending with a cliffhanger that left readers wondering what would happen to their favorite characters.  Enthusiastic BOYSTOWN fans from all over the world petitioned Biondi to release the installments more quickly; they simply couldn’t wait to find out what happened next.   Overwhelmed by and grateful for the fans’ responses to the series, Biondi began to write more quickly and also began to publish the series in book format.
 
Like the first five books, BOYSTOWN Season Six is available at bookstores across the country as well at online at amazon.com, bn.com, and iTunes.  The series is available in paperback, audio book, and all e-book formats.  Readers may order autographed paperback copies of the books directly from BoystownTheSeries.com. 
 
Biondi is working with two television producers who are interested in bringing the BOYSTOWN series to television.  Biondi remains optimistic that fans all over the world will soon be able to watch their favorite BOYSTOWN characters in action on television. Zwierzynski said, “BOYSTOWN will make a fantastic TV series because it presents a diverse group of characters that appeal to a wide reading and viewing audience.”  Divine Magazine wrote, “Biondi’s BOYSTOWN was birthed ready for prime time television.”  And Gay Media Reviews stated, “This series could completely be made into a television series and I believe that it should be as when reading this series I actually felt that I was watching a drama TV series.”
